Dog training does not differ that much between different breeds. The main difference is that some dogs are much more dominant than others and you have to be firm and consistent when training them. This is especially true with bigger, stronger dogs. Among bigger dogs, Labradors and Golden Retrievers are often recommended to first time dog owners. These dogs are good natured and eager to please and thus generally easy to train even for a person who does not have strong personality.

When it comes to aggression towards other dogs, I suggest you take a look my post on how to stop dog aggression towards other dogs. It features a video by Doggy Dan where he shows how you can easily make an aggressive dog calm and friendly towards other dogs.
